The MIMIC Product Suite

MIMIC Simulator: Simulates an entire network. Configurations are run-time customizable. MIMIC responds to queries on any of its configured IP addresses, so it is as if the NMS application is talking to actual devices.

MIMIC Recorder: Simulates the behavior of devices on a network by capturing a “snapshot” of the device in operation. The Simulation can then easily replay the entire network.

MIMIC CLI/IOS Recorder: Enables users to make recordings of sessions between management stations and managed devices and to convert them into rules files for use with the simulations.

MIMIC Compiler: Import any SMI-compliant MIB and to extend the set of defined devices to support proprietary equipment.

MIMICView: A user-friendly GUI to manipulate the simulations.

MIMIC Shell: A command-line interface.

Discovery Wizard: Discover, record and simulate networks in a single step.
